This lovely set includes refurbished Go Stones and Go Bowls.
The 180 white pieces are Japanese clamshell with a mix of grades, but mostly Moon and Snow grade. They have been refurbished in our Colorado workshop: they were soaked in hydrogen peroxide for a week & washed with distilled water.
The 181 slate stones are slightly larger (wider), and have been washed with soapy water & rinsed with distilled water - they have not been buffed with mineral oil, we leave that choice to you.
It's preferred to have the black stones slightly larger than the white to account for black's slimming effect. If they are the same size, the bright white pieces will appear larger.
The bowls have nice parallel lines, and are likely Keyaki (zelkova) or something similar like Sakura (cherry). They have been scrubbed of their original finish, treated with Monkey Butter, and buffed clean. At XL size, they fit the stones neatly.
This is a Vintage product. You can read more about our refurbishing at our Care Instructions.
